Water Tank Waterproofing Services - Leak-Proof & Hygienic Tanks

Why Water Tank Waterproofing is Essential in Chennai

In Chennai’s tropical climate, water tanks—whether overhead or underground—are highly susceptible to seepage and leaks due to high humidity, temperature fluctuations and the presence of groundwater. Waterproofing your tank is essential to avoid serious consequences such as:

  • Water contamination: Leaks allow dirt, bacteria and algae to enter the tank, rendering the water unsafe for drinking and other uses.
  • Structural damage: Over time, seepage weakens the tank’s structure, leading to cracks, rusting of internal rebar and even tank collapse.
  • Increased maintenance costs: Leaks and damage lead to higher repair costs, water wastage and increased water bills.

Proper tank waterproofing helps ensure your water storage remains hygienic, safe and efficient for both residential and commercial use. At EMERGE INFRA, we provide expert waterproofing services to protect your water tank from these risks, ensuring long-term performance and protection.

  1. Underground Water Tanks (UGT): Underground tanks are prone to high water pressure and external moisture, which can lead to cracks and leaks. We provide waterproofing solutions that prevent these issues, ensuring safe water storage.
  2. Overhead RCC Tanks (OHT): These tanks are exposed to the elements and need waterproofing to prevent algae growth, water leakage and rusting of internal RCC rebar. We offer effective waterproofing services to keep overhead tanks dry and intact.
  3. PVC & Brick Masonry Water Tanks: PVC and brick masonry tanks require specialized coatings to prevent water leakage and ensure potable water safety. We apply high-quality waterproofing solutions that offer durability and prevent contamination.
  4. Elevated Tanks in Commercial Buildings: Elevated tanks often face issues with cracks and seepage. Our waterproofing contractors offer customized solutions to ensure long-lasting protection for commercial water tanks.
  5. Rainwater Harvesting Tanks: As rainwater harvesting becomes more popular in Chennai, ensuring the water remains clean is crucial. We offer specialized waterproofing services to protect rainwater collection tanks, preventing contamination and ensuring safe storage.

No matter the type, our tailored water tank waterproofing services ensure that your tank remains water-tight, safe and efficient.

Our Water Tank Waterproofing Process

Our water tank waterproofing services are comprehensive and include a detailed, multi-stage process to guarantee the best results. Here’s how we ensure your tank remains secure and leak-proof:

  • Tank Cleaning: We start by cleaning the water tank, removing sludge, debris, algae and other contaminants. This step ensures the surface is free from any obstructions, allowing for a smooth and effective application of waterproofing solutions.
  • Crack Treatment: Any visible cracks, joints, or weak spots are treated with Polyurethane (PU) Grout. This high-quality grout effectively seals cracks and prevents water infiltration, ensuring a strong, durable bond that won’t wear down over time.
  • Surface Priming: After crack sealing, we apply bonding agents to prime the tank surface. This enhances the adhesion of the waterproof coating and ensures that the waterproofing treatment adheres strongly to the tank’s walls.
  • Waterproof Coating Application: Next, we apply 2-3 coats of Cementitious or Crystalline Waterproofing Coatings. These advanced coatings form a protective barrier that prevents water leakage and ensures the tank remains dry and secure, even under high moisture conditions.
  • Final Testing: Finally, after the waterproofing application, we conduct a curing process and perform a water-tightness check. This ensures the tank is fully waterproof and ready for use without any potential leaks or issues.

Our detailed approach guarantees that your water tank remains in top condition, providing safe and hygienic water storage for the long term.

  • NSF/IS-Approved Cementitious Coatings: These coatings are ideal for water tank waterproofing, providing a safe, non-toxic seal that prevents leaks and protects the tank from the elements.
  • Polyurethane Grout for Cracks: This high-performance PU grout is perfect for sealing cracks and joints, offering flexibility and durability for long-term waterproofing.
  • Elastomeric Sealants: Used for joints and seams, these elastomeric sealants ensure a tight, flexible seal, preventing water leakage even with temperature and humidity fluctuations.
